Hi,
First post, first off, awesome forum, been reading for a while never posted. I have had an RX-2000 for a while and loved it and just picked up an RX-5000 with what has what looks like an AX-2G. I have a Micro Seiki MA-808x tonearm and would like to set it up without spending extra funds on a new armboard- as I have some things I want to fix with the turntable, especially the small chunks that were removed from the gunmetal platter during shipping. I plan to drill out a hole in the armboard and I found that the hole diameter for the tonearm hole is 41 mm, and can approximate the distance from the mounting hole, but was hoping someone may be able to provide the exact distance in mm.
An aside, I have been spending lots of time on here reading threads to learn about the rx-5000 and how to restore my unit, since I bought a well used Japan model. I found this site http://amp8.com/amp-etc/record/micro/micro.htm, which has fabulous pictures of the insides of each component as well as what he did to refresh them to supplement what I found here. Leaving this here in the hopes it can help give someone else more confidence to open the units up and refresh them, like it has for me.
TIA!!
